I meant storing the sprites in a more basic string/array format like e.g. binary strings ( e.g.: spriteFoo = '01110101001001' ). The base128 encoding requires complex/lengthy computations to decode and use a wiiiide portion of the 256 possible ASCII characters in a chaotic order, leaving very few tokens/characters available for a packer to replace the redudant patterns of the source code. On my WIP all the sprites ( 69 in total ) are in a single .PNG file weighing ~1710 bytes. That's less than 25 bytes per sprite and no JS code required to decode them and what not. I might give a shot at storing/generating the sprites in JS as I expect people to "bitch" about me using an image when I release my version. Using an image is less geeky but it's like 2-3x more efficient than the encoding used in the 14kB Mario. OTOH the geek points lost here, will float back on the music part ;) [url=http://www.p01.org/][img]http://poi.ribbon.free.fr/files/p01_ozoneasylum_sig_teapot.png[/img][/url] [small](Edited by [url=http://www.ozoneasylum.com/user/2185]poi[/url] on 04-16-2008 13:42)[/small] Loading...
